Long Distance Movers in Toronto
Insured moves from the GTA across Ontario and into Quebec, quoted by route
Get a Long Distance QuoteLast updated:
G&T Moving runs long distance moves from Toronto and the GTA across Ontario, into Quebec (Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, Gatineau), and on selected routes into nearby U.S. states. These moves are quoted by route rather than from a flat rate card: the price depends on the distance, the truck size, and the access at both ends. Send both addresses and a few photos and we reply with a quote based on your actual move.
What decides the price is mostly the same thing that decides a local move: access. The kilometres add to the job, but a third-floor walk-up, an unbooked service elevator, or a piano on a curved staircase at either end changes the plan more than the highway does. Send photos with your addresses and we plan around the real move.
Furniture wrapped before it leaves the room, items grouped and strapped on the truck, and a piano secured on its board. The same care applies whether the drive is 20 minutes or 5 hours.
Our crew and trucks are based in Markham, near Highway 404, and we cover Toronto and the GTA seven days a week. Beyond the GTA we quote the destinations below.
The destinations we quote most often outside the GTA. Distances below are approximate road distances from the Toronto area.
Interprovincial moves into Quebec are available for households, pianos, and heavier loads. Final pricing depends on route, timing, and placement requirements.
Selected cross-border routes are quoted case by case. Tell us the origin, destination, and what is on the truck, and we confirm whether we can take the route.
How a long distance move is priced
Our published hourly rates cover local moves in Toronto and the GTA. Once the destination is outside the GTA, we quote the route: distance, truck and crew, and the access at both ends. These are the details that shape the number.
For local rates, see the pricing page.
Give us the pickup and delivery addresses, the floor at each end, and photos of the largest items and any tight stairs. This is what lets us size the truck and crew before we quote, rather than adjusting on the day.
We reply with a quote for your route and your load. Long distance moves are not priced from the local hourly rate card, because the distance and the access at both ends change the job.
If either address is a condo or apartment tower, book the service elevator and loading bay for both days before the move date is final. The building sets the schedule, and a long drive in between leaves little room to wait for a lift.
Furniture is wrapped in plastic film before it leaves the room, items are tagged with colour-coded stickers matched to rooms at the destination, and everything is strapped down on the truck for the road.
The crew unloads and places furniture in the rooms you tagged it for, so nothing is carried twice at the new address.
G&T Moving carries commercial business insurance, public liability insurance, and cargo and transport insurance. A certificate of insurance can be issued when a building asks for one at the pickup or the delivery address.
We use our own crew rather than a third-party labour agency, so the people who give you the quote are the people responsible for the move.
Pianos, safes, marble and stone pieces, and other heavy items travel with the right equipment: a piano board, straps, blankets, and enough crew for the stairs at both ends. Tell us about them when you ask for the quote so the truck and crew are planned for them.

Addresses and a few photos get you further than a phone description.

Fast service with fair pricing
Long distance moves from Toronto are quoted by route, not from a flat price list. The price depends on the distance, the truck size and crew, and the access at both ends: stairs, elevators, parking, and building rules. For a quote that holds, send both addresses, the floor at each end, and photos of your biggest items. Our local hourly rates are published on the pricing page, but they apply to moves within the GTA.
Across Ontario, including Hamilton, Niagara, Kitchener–Waterloo, London, Barrie, Kingston, and Ottawa, as well as into Quebec: Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, and Gatineau. Quebec City is quoted by route. We also quote selected routes into New York, Michigan, and a few other nearby U.S. states.
Yes. Ottawa and Eastern Ontario, and Montreal and other Quebec cities, are destinations we quote. Ottawa is roughly 450 km from Toronto. A past customer moved a four-bedroom home from Toronto to Ottawa, including a piano, with us; their review is on this page.
Yes. Pianos are moved on a dedicated piano board, wrapped and strapped, the same way as a local piano move. For a long distance move we confirm the stairs and elevator at both ends first, because a tight turn at the pickup or the delivery address changes the crew. See our piano movers page for how we handle stairs and baby grand or grand pianos.
G&T Moving carries commercial business insurance, public liability insurance, and cargo and transport insurance. A certificate of insurance can be issued if your condo or building manager requires one at either end.
The pickup and delivery addresses, the building type and floor at each end, the number and size of rooms, your largest or heaviest items with photos, any stairs or elevator booking rules, whether you want packing or assembly help, and your target date.
If either address is a condo or apartment tower, yes. Most Toronto condos require a booked service elevator window, and many destination buildings do too. Confirm both bookings before you lock in the moving date.
Yes. Local moves in Toronto and the GTA are billed hourly, starting at $100/hour for two movers with a 17 ft truck, with a 2-hour minimum. See the pricing page for the full rate card.
